Allergic diseases, including asthma, allergic rhinitis, atopic dermatitis, and chronic urticaria, now affect more than 25-30% of the global population, with incidence rates continuing to rise. This growing prevalence places a significantRead More…
In the intricate and sophisticated human immune system, Immunoglobulin M (IgM) plays a pivotal role as the first line of defense against pathogens. Known for its large molecular weight and unique properties,Read More…
Introduction Immunoglobulin A (IgA) antibodies are essential components of mucosal immunity, playing a crucial role in pathogen defense at the body’s surfaces, including respiratory and gastrointestinal tracts. With recent breakthroughs, IgA antibodiesRead More…
Introduction to IgE Antibodies An antibody of the class known as immunoglobulin E (IgE) is a mediator in the body’s immune system, defending against parasitic infestations. It plays a role in hypersensitivityRead More…
In recent months, significant progress has been made in the field of Immunoglobulin M (IgM) research. Several notable studies and advancements have enhanced our understanding and potential therapeutic applications of this crucialRead More…
IgA Nephropathy, also known as Berger’s disease, presents a puzzling renal disorder primarily affecting the younger demographic. This condition involves the deposition of immunoglobulin A (IgA) antibodies in the glomeruli within theRead More…
Oral Allergy Syndrome (OAS), also known as pollen-food syndrome, is a unique form of food allergy primarily classified under Type I hypersensitivity reactions, which are mediated by Immunoglobulin E (IgE). This conditionRead More…
The immune system in humans principally performs its defensive functions through two types of lymphocytes, namely T cells and B cells. T cells destroy or suppress directly, while B cells generate antibodies.Read More…
Globally, the prevalence of food allergies in children is on the rise. Earlier onset allergies to milk, eggs, and wheat in children have a better prognosis, while allergies to peanuts, tree nuts,Read More…
The immune system is a complex network of cells, tissues, organs, and soluble molecular factors that collaboratively protect the body from harmful pathogens. One of these essential ‘soldiers’ in the battleground ofRead More…
